    Yes, the variant cover has Aurora's arm and Northstar's shoulder on it. Grr. It's very silly but I got it anyway.
    Are you an Alpha Flight Collector?

    Are they in any more of the actual issue though? Or just that one panel from the preview?

    And issue #4 is out today. Too bad Jeffries spent the whole time :

    S

    P

    O

    I

    L

    E

    R

    S

    trying to communicate with the Sentinel's mechanical brain than just rip it apart with his technomorph powers. Then suddenly they got taken out before he could give it a go. Otherwise Jeffries could have easily blown it apart. oh well.

    If the writers have forgotten his power or can't use him without knocking him out in every issue he appears in, then they need to relinquish their stranglehold on the character.

    btw, have we ever solved the mystery (if it was one) of whether Madison is Canadian or not? I don't think he is (but then why was he in Beta Flight originally?).

    He was born in Canada, never stated where in Canada though. I didnt realise people were discussing if he was Canadian or not.

    Well, if by 'people' you mean 'Flightpath', then...yes, they are.

    I'd never given it any thought as to him not being Canadian, especially after serving in the army.

    I'm thinking the confusion is based on Madison's bio, which states that both he and his brother Lionel fought in the Vietnam War. However, quite a few Canadians went south of the border to join the U.S. military so they could participate in Vietnam.
    He's always been portrayed as a Canadian character.

    In Vol 1 #30 page 16, it states that Maddison and his brother were just two of the thousands of Canadians who joined the US Army during The Vietnam war. Maddy did it to escape his power, Lionel to employ his.

    Driftwood: Well, I got about a foot and a half. Now, it says, uh, "The party of the second part shall be known in this contract as the party of the second part."
    Fiorello: Well, I don't know about that...
    Driftwood: Now what's the matter?
    Fiorello: I no like-a the second party, either.
    Driftwood: Well, you should've come to the first party. We didn't get home 'til around four in the morning... I was blind for three days!

    Funnily enough, the Vietnam part of his origin would make him over 60 years old (I would imagine it would be the same for the Punisher?). Maybe they'll retcon at some point to update it, if it's ever brought up again.

    ...And yes, he's Canadian.
